The user can transmit the result to the home computer for storage. This design can easily construct a health detection network, and can get a doctor's diagnosis without complicated operations, which is very suitable for home users.

System implementation

The sensors in this system are used to detect the weak signals of the electrocardiogram, and then encoded after amplification and filtering, and then sent to the gateway based on the ARM and ZigBee coordinator module through the ZigBee wireless module, and sent to the host computer for display processing through the peripheral interface Then, it is transmitted to the community clinic via Ethernet, and the clinic returns each person's information to their respective families through the ZigBee wireless module, and displays the hospital's feedback of the processing information on the LCD. Reasonable chip selection can achieve low power consumption, low cost, and detect weak ECG waveform changes.

Signal acquisition and conditioning

The AD620, a low-power, high-precision instrumentation amplifier, is used as the core device of the preamplifier. AD620 has the characteristics of high precision, high input impedance, low input bias current, low input offset current, low noise, low power consumption, small size, etc. It is very suitable for application in medical instrument systems. The low-pass filter circuit uses Butterworth fourth-order filter TLC04, which is low-cost, easy to use, and provides precise fourth-order low-pass filter functions. The buffer is an in-phase voltage follower, its role is to improve the system input impedance and common mode rejection ratio. The wave limiter uses a double-T band stop filter to filter out the 50 Hz power frequency interference. The main amplifier uses a full power output amplitude four operational amplifier TLC2274, which provides excellent AC performance, and provides lower noise, lower input offset voltage and lower power consumption than ordinary CMOS op amps.

Data processing and display description

This design uses the differential threshold method to detect QRS waves. The basic idea is: perform differential operation on the filtered ECG signal, find the differential threshold to determine the falling edge of the QRS waveform, and then determine the QRS according to a certain time window and amplitude threshold The characteristic points of the wave.

The main principle of scanning electrocardiography is to draw points from left to right, and display the corresponding positions in sequence. At the same time, the new points cover the original points, and there is a buffer zone in the middle to erase the old points. When drawing to the far right, draw the next picture from the far left, and repeat it all the way. The upper computer displays the waveform as shown in Figure 3.

Headlight is Powerful light at the front of a vehicle. One motorcycle usually needs a one or two bulbs. It is depend on the original lamp design. Driver need power light to illuminate the road in front of them to keep them safe, so the halogen bulbs are usually been used as headlight. Halogen bulb can generate more light and has better working life hours. The supply voltage of halogen lamp is usually divided into 6V, 12V and 24V. The halogen lamp is made of tungsten, but it is enclosed in a smaller quartz glass shell. Normally, the halogen bulb will create ultraviolet when light, so we must use quartz coating to prevent head lamp been damaged by the ultraviolet generated by halogen bulb. To generate more light, the filament be heated to the very high temperature, so halogen bulb is hotter than a normal bulb.
